Following the restructure and the bid to make the Championship more like Super League there a few match day changes. We've seen elsewhere that teams will need to announce their 19 man squad 48 hours ahead of the game. Also, every stadium with have an official stadium clock linked up to the time keepers watch

that will be interesting how that will be done. speaking to your dad recently, he would not want to watch the game in the pa room where the scoreboard operating computer is held, plus theres not exactly much room in there at the moment. so not sure how thats gonna work for us,

regards naming squads 48 hrs before kick off. what happens if some one gets injured or comes down with a virus on the day of the game. surely the manager can still make changes to the team?

It will not be the existing stadium clock; the RFL will be providing each club with a clock which links to the timekeepers equipment directly wirelessly. This can then be placed anywhere in the ground and the current clocks turned off (hallelujah).

As an aside, the RFL will also be providing independant timekeepers to all games as they do in super league

Super league have been doing the squad naming for years now; I'd guess there is allowance for extenuating circumstances leading to the unavailability of several players after the squad has been named (which would doctors reports etc) but I haven't studied the rules
